END OF THE WAR,

“Tae South African war is over—thank God!” This will be the exclamation of the British people, this an expression of the British Empire, today.

The war began by the invasion of Natal

feeling prevailing throughout the

and Cape Colony on the 12th of October last—just seven months and nineteen days ago. Nota long time in which to trans- port a great army across eight thousand

miles of water aod land and suppress two republics—fully armed and equipped with the best gunsand ammunition, and assisted by numbers of able cflicers and and men drawn trom the most cfficient European armies—which simed at “para- meuntey,” the throughout South Africa!

At first there were reverses ; and, in one ortwo instances, repulses of our forces. The streogth of the enemy had not been correctly gauged; some blunders were uufortuoately made, aod some valuable

when the facts of the

grasped by the British Government and

the strength of the enemy found oat, Lord | Roberts and Lord Kitchener were sent to ‘the front—and thenceforth victory perched upon the British banners.

On the day after Lord Roberts began to march, the Boers began to retreat ; and they have been retreating, with short io- termissions, ever since.

The story of the war has been written and published fromday to day. Every incident, almost, is familiar to the public. We need not dwell upon it now.

The war has revealed a union of British hearts, throughout the Empire, on behalf of a tighteous cause; and it it has proved again that, in union there is strength—a po entis!] as wel! as a ) resent strength that may be ‘cresistitle when exerted on behalf of that which the Britieh people throughout the world believe to be right.

In the war, just now happily ended, bat | one arm of the British service—and that [

the weakest—has been practically used.

The navy was of no avail in so faras the}

actual operations were concerned. If the | necessity and opportunity to uee both arms |

should occur,—the natiozs wil! witness an

exhibition of Britain’s might. But we!

hope that that day may be far off.

to theirminds. At the beginning of the

Budget debate, this year, the Pre- mier spoke for nearly an _ hour in explanation of the trick that was

played upon Mr, Wise; and other matters which had no connection whatever with the budget were dragged into the debate. Naturally the fact that Mr. Piuean, elected to oppose the Government, was maintaining the Government in office and power, was @ subject of animadversion on the part of the Opposition speakers. M~. Pineau was repentedly accused of having betrayed his constituents, It was openly charged that his conduct wes the result of corrupt negotiations between

But, yesterday afternoon, Mr. A. A. McLean took the ground that the House Ought not togo into supply, not only bes cause of the amazing revelaticn that the “Sinkiog Funds ” set forth in the Public Accounts report were wholly imaginary and the accounts all wrong, but because one of the members of the House—the member upon whom the existence of the

Government depended—bad been ap-

proached and corrupted, and induced to turn traitor to the trust imposed upon this grouud of opposition to the budget, Mr. McLean tions :—

I, William Callaghan, of Ebbs fleet Prioce County, Province of Prince Kdward Island, farmer, do eolemply declare that eu or eboutthe 9:h February Jaet, Henry J. Pineau, M. L. A., of Ebbefleet, called On me and said that he wished to speak to me O00 ao important matter and wanted my advice. He stated to me that he was approached by Dr. Wickham, of Tigaish, and was offered that if he would acce;t, that he,Mr. Pineau, could get the ap pointment of Commissioner tothe Paris Exposition with the pay of $5 per day and all expenses. He furtuer st-ted that Dr. Wickham told bim that he would pave to go to Charlottetown to see Prewicr Puig i- harson who would direct bim to the Deputy Minister of Public Works, Ottawa, for futher instructions’ I told him he was adopting a dangerous course aod bei» ter mind wha, he was about and go to Figoish and see his friends, which he promised todo. He eaid that it would be a great thing for him to eee his own country, France. I afterwards saw Mr. Pineau. He told me that he had a letter

When at his place, he, Pineau, told me thatthat Dr. Wickham, of Tig- nish Was to see him on the previous day and offered him that if he would accept he, Wickham, was authorized to offer him the appointinent of Commis-ioner from this Island to the Paris Exposition ata salary of $5 per day, and oll expenses paid. He asked me what | thought of this offer, as he said he had been to see Mr. William Cullagban for his advice and would like to have my opinion also, I toldbim I did oot approve of it, as he was elected by us to goto the Housve of Assembly and oppose the Government and not to sel! our rights by taking cffers of this kind. He said nothing further, and I went to my bouse.

He also sad, that he bad asked or them that amount Lefore leaving Charlottetown on the pre- vious Friday and they told him they were to meet Monday, and they would let him know cn hisreturn back to Charlotie- town.

He written by Mr. Pineau bimeelt,—a letter dated * Ottawa, March 8:h”—and

forth that

set- the wricer bad been well

received by the Gor But here he was cut short. ‘This was, the Honor-

ting

able Mr. Sinclair said,“ going too far.” For the Government «truggied ani haggled to Mr.

leiter over the signature of “ Henry J,

prevect McLean from reading a

Pineau.’ The Speaker was asked to rule that the letter should pot be read ; and upon the grourd that there is a rule that a member of the House shall not be allowed .o reficct upon the character of another member, the Speaker ruled that this let- ter, written by Mr. Pineau himeseif, ehould not be read. fa view of the latitude that had previously been allowed Speakers taking part in the Budget Debate, this “ruling” wes superiaiively ridiculous.

We all know that an honest man’s own words are vot likely to rflect shame and diegrace upon Limse!f-- particularly when there is ample opportunity for a full ex~ planation, Therefore, the plea upon which the Government and the Sspeaker stopped Mr. McLean, was worthless. The letter in question, either confirms the affidavits previousiy read by Mr. McLean or it does not. If it does, the Legisla' ure and the whole country are interested in it, aod it oughtt> be read in the Legislature and published by the prese; if it does not, tien the Government and Mr. Pineau had nothing to fearon sccount of its fublica- tion. The fact that the Government co strongly opposed the reading of the letters and the fect that Mr. Pineau did not ris¢ in his place and demand that tbe letter should be read, proves guilty knowledge on the part of both. There is something in it which the Government and Mr. Pineau, alike, particu’arly desire to have What is it?

Mr. Pineau was not wholly silent amid

the uproar. Hehad something to sey about Mr. Shea’s declaration. Rising to a point of order, he declared in effect that Mr. Shea saw hm on Sunday when he was at home, and told kim that he bad a chance to make nuney and not to take $2000 from the Liberals as the Conserva- tives would give him ‘tiat amount and perhaps more for his support.

It was, of course, necessary that Mr, Pineau ehould attempt to. parry a blow that is fatal to his reputation and may in-

terfere with the carrying out of his “‘ar-

92

rangement.” Butit is to be regretted

that he has, in doing so, impugned the character of Mr. Shea without relieving himself in the slightest degree. In point of fact, as Mr. Shaw suggesied, he must have iaformed Mr. Shea of his ultimatam to the Government or Mr. Shea could not have thonght of saying that the Conserva- tives vould give nim $2000 and perbape more, Bat why should the Conservatives offer Mr. Pineaa $20)0 or any other amount in returo for his eupport ? Was he not elect- ed, by the Coaservatives as a Coneervatives to oppose our Liberal Goverament ?
